Cameron's POV
I got out of bed, and I just realized I had a photoshoot today. I quickly went to take a shower and ran to my car to go to this random hotel to take pictures. The photographer decided to have me take pictures in the shower, and in bed with a towel wrapped around me. It took hours to get the right picture. I got home at around four, the day was so long. It dragged, but the more I thought about what I would come home to, it made me some what happier. Its the first day that Danielle and I haven't really talked that much. As soon as I got home, she wasn't there, I waited by the phone to see if she'd text me.
*Courtney and I wanted to go get some food, I'll be home in a little bit.* I read the message. I went straight to bed and fell asleep.
Danielle's POV
I walked into Physics with him, he decided to sit next to me. I waited for Courtney to come into the class to tell her whats going on. She walked in casually, and looked directly. Her lips parted, and her eyes widened a little by the sight of Austin sitting next to me. She took the seat in front of me.
"I have to tell you what just happened after school," I whispered in her ear. She shook her head and turned to face the teacher. The school day went by quickly, and Austin was in most of my classes now. I can't decide if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Brielle was in one of my classes with Austin too. I can only imagine what she would do if she found out he was talking to me. When they were in the same class as me, I couldn't help but watch them. She was always all over him, to the point where he had no space to breathe. When she told him a joke, he'd laugh, but his smile didn't look real. Whenever I saw them together, even before Cameron and now, I've always wished that was me.
"So what do you have to tell me?" Courtney asked her arms folded across her stomach.
"Not here, lets get in the car first," I said. My voice was so low, I could barely hear myself. We quickly got into my car.
"So, out of no where Austin said that he wants to be friends with me," I said with an awkward tone in my voice. Is it even possible to be friends with someone you've had a crush on for the longest time?
"That's so random, did he say why?" She asked confused.
"Apparently I'm the only person who hasn't tried to use him for his popularity," I said rolling my eyes. It didn't seem like that was true. "Did you see Brielle all over him? Its sickening," I groaned. In the back of my mind, I knew that I wanted to be in her place. I've had the biggest crush on him since I was four. He never noticed me, and now he finally has when I'm happy.
"Are you jealous?" she asked through a laugh.
"Why would I be jealous? I have Cameron," I said quickly. I didn't want to tell anyone that I was completely jealous of her. Everything about her is perfect, there's no way I'd compete with her. I've always wished that I would be the one to make him happy. To have him feel the same way, and live happily ever after with Austin. I've dreamt about it my whole life, to have him love me. I just wasn't lucky enough.
"Yeah okay," Courtney said rolling her eyes. I flashed a fake smile, and we went on our way to go eat. I texted Cameron since I haven't really talked to him all day. He didn't answer, I guess he fell asleep. We ate quickly and I took her home, then I drove to Cameron's house. I couldn't help but think about what just happened today. Why does he want to be my friend? Is he just playing with my feelings since he knows I've always had a crush on him? Or is he really just going to use my brain? All these questions popped into my head. Not once did I ever think about the chance of him feeling the same way about me.
I walked through the front door and went straight to our room. He was passed out. I silently changed into a pair of booty shorts and one of his t-shirts. I took off my makeup and put my hair in a messy bun. I slowly slid on to the bed, trying not to wake him up. I crawled underneath the covers. I heard him let out a loud deep breath, and he wrapped his arms around me.
"How was your first day beautiful?" he asked. His voice was deep and quiet.
"Rough, I could tell some classes are going to be hard. How was your day?" I asked. There was so much to worry about for my senior year. Prom and our annual senior trip. This year our school decided to take us to Hawaii instead of Florida.
"I had a photoshoot, that took up the whole day. I'm exhausted," he said as he grip on me tightened.
"Let's go to sleep then!" I exclaimed. I turned my head to look at him. I leaned over and kissed his lips softly. He kissed me back, and those sparks that I've always felt came. I don't need Austin, I have the best guy I could ever want right here. Finally my battle with sleep overcame me, and those same dreams that I've always had about being with Austin crept into my mind. Not again.
Austin's POV
The first time I saw Danielle today in class, she looked different. A good different, she seems so much happier and looks prettier some how. I never actually looked at her, but today when I did I felt something. I knew that I had to talke to her somehow.
Things with Brielle are well, good I guess. She's the only girl I've ever been with so I have nothing to compare it to. I see the way Danielle looks at me, and its not the same way Brielle does.
"So I decided to start talking to Danielle. Just incase I need help in a class or something," I mentioned to Brielle. The reason I did strike up the conversation with her was because well, I don't really know. I wasn't even thinking while I was talking to her.
"Why? You're smarter then her, what use is she?" she said. I noticed that jealousy started to overcome her.
"You don't know that. Its not like you had a conversation with her," I said. I waited for her to respond, she was on her phone scrolling through Instagram. Not even paying attention to what I was saying. I can't stand when she does that. I noticed that she was looking through Danielle's uploaded picture. I saw a picture with her and some guy. They were kissing in the picture. I could easily tell that she was happy, he's the reason she's happy. That this glow came off of her, when I looked at her. For some reason I started to get jealous. Why should I be jealous? I have the perfect girlfriend, perfect grades, and popularity. But what if I want more? What if I want that with her instead of Brielle? So many questions ran through my mind as I stared down at this picture. I want more.
